The Miz Talks Tribute to the Troops
CraveOnline.com has posted a new interview with WWE star The Miz, and he had the following to say regarding the importance of WWE Tribute to the Troops:
The Miz: For me personally, its one of my favorite specials that WWE does. It’s incredible to be a part of it. I’ve been doing this for six years now. WWE has been doing it for 12 years.
My first year being a part of Tribute To The Troops I actually got to go over to Iraq and witness what our soldiers go through on a day-to-day basis. We can watch the news all we want and how they portray what a war is like and what’s going on, but until you actually go over there and see the life that a soldier lives, you will have a whole new found appreciation for the life they live.
The only thing to do over there was work, eat, and if they had a gym, work out. They couldn’t talk to their families. They were secluded and all they really see is soldiers in uniform. To bring the WWE out there in our normal clothes, it’s just refreshing… ‘It boosts morale’ is what most soldiers would tell us.
